Default Help with Central Indicator Unit?

Does anyone have a picture of the back of the Central Indicator Panel for an OB? I mean the unit in the console with the acknowledgement button.
I think some wires broke off of the unit for my 82 5 speed. I think I need solder them back on, but want to be sure of the placement.
Thanks to all.

Default BUMP

I am really close to finishing a job that would get me back on the road after a long layoff. This is basically the last thing I have to do. Please help.

Thanks Aryan,
That is just the kind of pic I was hoping for, but the 82 has only 6 wires I am aware of. 2 of which are still connected. I can't seem to make it out on the wiring diagram either. There is a 4 pole connector that goes to four posts on the unit. This is my best guess for those:
1=brown
2=red
3=blue
4=gray

There is also (I believe) a two pole connector that has a a black wire and a white wire that (I believe) lead to two poles labeled (appropriately) 1 & 2.
Now, with that connection I have about a 50/50 shot, but I was hoping someone could give me a little edge on the odds.
Thanks again for any help.

Bob - figure it out by function:

Red & Blue should go to the bulb behind the reset switch - it will measure probably about 10-20 ohms when the bulb filament is cold. The orientation doesnt really matter.

The Brown & Grey go to the switch (its a momentary connection press switch) again the order doesn't really matter on these - closed circuit when pressed.

The Black & White go to the seat belt warning - two bulbs in parallel behind the logo panel - approx 5-10 ohms cold on these.

Once you figure out the connections you can apply 12v across the bulb connections to illuminate them and verify you have the right ones..
